Oct 3 - Amherst






We drove out to Maccan to watch the Tidal Bore, which is when the tide from the Bay of Fundy comes into the river and reverses the current. It is amazing how quickly the river rises on its banks when this is happening. The bore takes about 1.5 hours. We were fortunate to meet a local neighbour who goes there daily and shared so much local info with us. He has been the recorder of the tides & times for over 40 years.



Left Amherst and drove to Moncton, where we checked into the Stonehurst Trailer Park & Golf Course -we got in 9 holes of golf. The course was super busy as this was the first nice day in a long while.
